Project description:Red light can affect a variety of responses in Arabidopsis. We characterize the early gene expression patterns of seedlings exposed to 1 hour of red light using a small sized sample of 5, 7-day-old seedlings and also performed dark controls. Methods that were developed for tissue extraction and labeling for microarrays were tested using these samples Keywords: 1 time point
Project description:Red light can affect a variety of responses in Arabidopsis. We characterize the early gene expression patterns of roots exposed to 1 hour of red light. Early genes indicate elements involved in photomorphogenesis, chloroplast development, PAL pathways, root hair development are regulated by 1 hour of red light; We used microarrays to detail the gene expression underlying the effects of red light on roots. Experiment Overall Design: 7 Day dark-grown 1 cm Arabidopsis root tips were harvested for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We pooled samples from several Petri plates for each experiment to obtain enough RNA for arrays. Three experiments were performed. Treatment 1 hour of red light 630 nm (max) and dark controls

We characterize the early gene expression patterns of seedlings exposed to 1 hour of red light using a small sized sample of 5, 7-day-old seedlings and also performed dark controls. Methods that were developed for tissue extraction and labeling for microarrays were tested using these samples Experiment Overall Design: Only 5, 7 day-old dark-grown Arabidopsis seedlings were treated as described and harvested for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We pooled samples from one Petri plate with MS medium 2% sucrose. Treatment was 1 hour of red light 630 nm (max) and dark controls
Project description:The goal of this project is to compare the primary metabolite profile in different tissue types of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Specifically, plants were grown hydroponically under the long-day (16hr light/day) condition at 21C. Tissue samples, including leaves, inflorescences, and roots were harvest 4 1/2 weeks post sowing. Untargeted primary metabolites profiling was carried out using GCTOF.

Project description:We report the mRNA profiles of the Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings germinated for 7days in the dark, then treated with light for 0h, 1h, 2h, 4h, 8h and 12h.
Project description:Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes Columbia (Col-0) (wild type: WT) was used in this study. After sterilization, the seeds were placed on Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with 2% (w/v) sucrose for 10 days and then the seedling were transferred to soil under 16 hours light (22°C) / 8 hours dark (18°C) period in growth chamber at a light intensity of 120?150 µmol m-2 s-1. 20-day-old Arabidopsis leaves without bolting were immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen for RNA and protein and metabolites extraction. Leaves were harvested at three different time points: t = 0 hr (end of night), t = 1 hr (one hour after light turn on) and t = 8 hr (eight hours after light turn on), respectively.
